May weather forecast
Nibong Tebal, Malaysia

The last month of the spring, May, is another tropical month in Nibong Tebal, Malaysia, with an average temperature ranging between max 32.1°C (89.8°F) and min 24.9°C (76.8°F).

Temperature

May experiences an average high-temperature of a still hot 32.1°C (89.8°F), barely different from April's 32°C (89.6°F). An average low-temperature of 24.9°C (76.8°F) is observed during May nights.

Heat index

The heat index value during May is computed to be a blisteringly hot 44°C (111.2°F). Stay alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a likely outcome of ongoing activity.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.

Use protective steps and abide by sun safety guidelines. Safeguarding against skin and eye harm is necessary. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Limit sun-induced ocular harm with sunglasses that feature UVA and UVB filtration.
